Lifelines

Linda Spock’s gracious gathering of poems offers each of us a lifeline. Here, in the midst of life’s challenges, much joyful solace is found. The power of love is always present, not least of all in Lifelines’ central group of poems about a much anticipated grandson, who offers all of us the same delight, laughter, and revival felt by the author. Like the spider in Spider Woman, Linda Spock knows how to make her lines dance rather than break. How lucky we are to be invited to the dance.
